The Integrated MARKAL-EFOM system (TIMES) is an evolved version of MARKAL and of the Energy Flow Optimisation Model (EFOM) with new functions and flexibilities, also developed within the ETSAP. The main advantage that TIMES has regarding its predecessors is its flexibility once it is possible to sub-divide the year in several time periods

Documentation for the TIMES Model PART I
TIMES (an acronym for The Integrated MARKAL-EFOM1 System) is an economic model generator for local, national, multi-regional, or global energy systems, which provides a technology-rich basis for representing energy dynamics over a multi-period time horizon. It is usually applied to the analysis of the entire energy sector, but may also
The basic structure of the core TIMES model — TIMES
The basic structure of the core TIMES model¶ The TIMES economy¶. The TIMES energy economy is made up of producers and consumers of commodities such as energy carriers, materials, energy services, and emissions. By default, TIMES assumes competitive markets for all commodities, unless the modeler voluntarily imposes regulatory or other constraints on some

General equilibrium extensions — TIMES
Expression calculates the capital survival factor for a period of years beginning with the end of the middle year (m_{t}) and ending with the end of the year (m_{t + 1}).The duration between these two middle years equals the duration (frac{d_{t + 1} + d_{t}}{2}).Then, a mean investment in period (t) is calculated by weighting the investments in (t) and (t+1) with the respective

Integrating Energy System Models in Life Cycle Management
This chapter focuses on bottom-up technology rich models, in particular the MARKAL/TIMES (The Integrated Markal Efom System) optimisation model generator developed by the IEA. TIMES is possibly the most widely used general purpose ESM [7, 14]. Alternative models following a similar structure such as TEMOA or OSeMOSYS are also considered.
TIMES Demand Functions — TIMES
Until TIMES v4.0, only the linearized own-price elasticity formulation was available in the common code. In MARKAL, the corresponding non-linear formulation was also available (see Loulou & al. 2004), and it was therefore subsequently made available in TIMES v4.1 and above, as the first natural generalization of the original demand functions.
Integrated MARKAL-EFOM System (TIMES) Model
TIMES is a bottom-up model generator that uses linear-programming to produce a least-cost energy system, optimized according to a number of user constraints, over medium to long-term time horizons. The model generator combines two systematic approaches to modeling energy: a technical engineering approach and an economic approach. The model encompasses all the

Low-carbon transformation of the regional electric power supply
However, the Integrated MARKAL-EFOM System (TIMES) model, a type of "bottom-up" model, can better reflect the differences in both electric power technology levels and resource endowments between different regions (Huang et al., 2017).
